He interviewed a young “transgender,” who decided he/she was Filipino “because he admired the culture.” This was an obvious white boy from NOLA, with pink hair. He acknowledged what he professed was silly and called himself “crazy” or “weird” or both. WTF? Why did Carlson believe this guy was worth interviewing on a national news show?

I watched this too and felt the same way. Why drag a random, confused nut on to the air to discuss what are basically his fantasies. I guess it does expose what many of these people are - self-indulgent loons.

This guest was the logical outcome to the gender identity/gender politics we’ve all been subjected to. If a person truly can “identify” as whatever they feel inside it’s logical to conclude that the politics of identity will not begin and end with gender. We are all aware that the idea that someone could identify as another race was raised several times over the last couple years. As I recall, liberals being interviewed on the subject typically ignored the question, “How far could identity politics go?” Someone “identifying” as Filipino was inevitable. I just didn’t need to see it played out on television.

I'm half Filipino but I've always liked Italian cooking and have admired the Roman Empire. Can I now identify as Italian?
